Hello blog lovers.
It was quite a pleasant evening, I had no running planned, so I thought I would join the Old Boy for a bike ride. And when he said just a 'nice little gentle ride' it deffinitely made my mind up that I would join him.
"Up to Downe village" he said "and then cut through, just 20 miles" That's his gentle ride, that for me is a good work out! We got our selves ready, all lycra'ed up and nice bright shiny clothes and set off. But before we got to the end of our path his light packed out for some reason. We had to change our route and distance, as we wasn't quite sure how much power we had in the moons (rechargeable lights). We changed our plans to ride for just 10 miles as we were already dressed for it.
It seems really mild for this time of year, really quite a pleasant evening for it. Downe village would have been a great ride. But going through Bromley wasn't too bad, through the streets so that we were able to see where to go if the lights failed!
I can deffinitely tell that I am not doing as much cycling as I used to, my backside is getting bloomin bruised again, I need to work on getting my saddle ass back! But, even though it was a very short ride, though Jubilee park, up to Plaistow Lane, and then some higgledy piggledy turns that he went through we came about by Bromley North train station. Down east street to the high street to Bromley South, and then we took at a right just after that, where Bromley Hospital used to be.
We were going to go to Hayes, and then through there to Barnet wood lane and then back home! A real short, short ride! But still very nice and I really enjoyed it, with just that one hill to contend with it was my sort of riding, a pleasure ride!
Back for dinner and veg in front of the telly!
